Before people own a dog or dogs, pass a mandatory CRB check

Petition Details

I would like for every new dog owner to have a mandatory lawful CRB check before being granted ownership of a dog , those who pass said CRB check to have safety and health checks on their dog or dogs every 6 months-12 months .

Additional Information

Id like to believe I speak on behalf of most people in the UK when typing this.
I am fed up and tired of seeing new/old dogs abandoned on streets everywhere , given to rescue centres etc , I dont believe it's fair,you wouldn't do it to children.whatever the reason owners should have thought of this before owning a dog.
I think it would be a great idea to bring in a mandatory lawful CRB check before ownership of a dog/dogs and upon passing mandatory,health/safety checks every 6-12 months

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

CRB checks have been replaced by DBS checks, which show whether someone has a criminal record. We're not sure whether you want anyone with any sort of criminal record to be prevented from owning a dog.

You might like to sign this petition, which would create a register to prevent people from owning pets
